This weekend, Chance the Rapper and the Social Experiment treated fans to their new “Planes” remix.

Earlier this year, Jeremih released his single “Planes”, which features a guest spot from J. Cole. Now, Chance the Rapper has teamed with his band the Social Experiment (Lido, Peter Cottontale, and Donnie Trumpet) to remix the song. It features a verse from Chance that invokes the Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory song “(I’ve Got a) Golden Ticket”. That’s it above.

Last year, Chance talked about doctors orders forcing him to take time off from performing for health purposes.

“Performing is, like, my thing,” he says, chilling his trailer behind Sasquatch!’s Bigfoot stage. “I love making music. I love listening to music. But performing music for people, that’s what my life is right now. (The break) gave me time to reflect on my show. I watched a lot of videos of myself and other performers, did push-ups, drank orange juice and did whatever I needed to do. It definitely put me back in the mindset. It took a couple of shows to get back in the swing of things, but I think I did improve, just in that I had time to myself.” (USA Today)

The Midwest rapper provided a brief update on his well-being last year after a hospitalization.

“Feeling better thanks for the prayers. Ima be back ???? for Wednesday’s show I promise. Resting at home for now. God bless u guys,” Chance tweeted April 21. (Chance the Rapper’s Twitter)
